He explained that while industry participants and consumers have been pressing for deeper reductions, the \u201ctrue\u201d cost-reflective rate is ultimately shaped by conditions outside Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>Gillis-Harry said fuel pricing continues to rely heavily on global forces, pointing to the way crude benchmarks and related factors can shift quickly. He argued that attempts to anchor domestic prices to a single crude oil level do not reflect how pricing works in practice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe true cost-reflective price is still determined internationally,\u201d he said, adding that Nigerians\u2019 expectations that lower crude\u2014citing a move to around $72 per barrel\u2014should automatically flow through to the pump do not match real-world pricing mechanics.<\/p>\n<p>He also highlighted ongoing volatility in crude markets, saying that even in the course of the recent talks, price swings were observed. \u201cEven today, as we are sitting there, we were checking the price volatility. Price increased by $73 per barrel,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>In reporting on the latest situation, the outlet noted that a decline in the gantry price for petrol supplied by Dangote Refinery\u2014and for depot owners\u2014has already pushed retail pump prices down to a range of <strong>N1,150 to N1,299 per litre<\/strong> in Abuja and surrounding areas.<\/p>\n<p>Despite that reduction, Nigerians and the federal government have continued to call for further cuts, with Gillis-Harry\u2019s comments underscoring the challenge of moving domestic prices to the <strong>N1,000<\/strong> mark while international inputs remain unstable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nigeria\u2019s fuel price relief has not yet translated into a nationwide retail rate of N1,000 per litre, the head of the Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association has said, arguing that pump pricing is still driven primarily by international market movements rather than local expectations.
